Terry L.

University Y Student Center

Terry has been a loyal member of Tacoma Center YMCA since the 1980s. When Tacoma Center Y was remodeled this summer, he enjoyed the University Y so much he decided to stay! Now he enjoys a set Monday through Saturday routine. Terry originally chose the Y for his exercise needs because his business contacts all joined and it was a natural way to keep up and build business contacts. He also liked the things that the Y does for the community. He has also given to Annual Campaign since 1994!

The Annual Campaign helps provide subsidized programming and financial assistance to members who may not be able to afford a membership. He also gives extra specifically to programs like the Juvenile Justice program held at the University Y Student Center. To Terry, giving to the Y just "makes sense because it is a good value" to better our community. He feels he is "lucky to be able to share his money" with an organization such as the Y!
